Answer:

Going from earth to the sun a probe would encounter the next layers in order:

  • Corona
  • Transition Region
  • Chromosphere
  • Photosphere
  • Convection Zone
  • Radiative Zone
  • Core

A brief description of them:

Corona is the outermost layer and it cannot  be seen with the naked eye, is starts at about 2100 km from the surface of the sun and it has no limit defined.

Transition Region is between the corona and the chromosphere, it has an extension of about 100km

The chromosphere is between 400 km from the surface of the sun to 2100 km. In this layer the further you get away from the sun it gets hotter.

The photosphere is the surface of the sun, the part that we can see, and extends from the surface to 400km.

The convection zone is where convection happens, hot gas rises, cools and rises again.

Radiative Zone is where the photons try to rise to move to higher layers.

The core of the Sun is where nuclear fusion occurs due to the very high temperatures.

A current-carrying wire of length 52.0 cm is positioned perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. If the current is 15.0 A and
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The magnetic field strength is 0.29 T.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of current-carrying wire, L = 52 cm = 0.52 m

Current, I = 15 A

Magnetic force, F = 2.3 N

We need to find the magnetic field strength. We know that the magnetic force is given by :

F=ILB

B is magnetic field strength

B=\dfrac{F}{IL}\\\\B=\dfrac{2.3}{0.52\times 15}\\\\B=0.29\ T

So, the magnetic field strength is 0.29 T.

Before the fission process takes place, lead-207 is bombarded with neutrons, it can change into
Oduvanchick [21]

Lead-207 can change into Lead-208.

When Lead-207 is bombarded with neutrons, the atom acquires the neutron. Adding a neutron only changes the mass number of the atom. This does not involve change in the identity of the atom. So, Lead-207 can change into Lead-208 without change in its chemical properties.

How many electrons will a single atom of sulfur with no charge and no bonds have in its valence shell?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

There are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.

Explanation:

Sulphur is a non-mettalic element which is in the period 3 and group .6on the periodic table. It has an atomic number of 16 and a Mass number of 32. Atomic number tells you the number of electrons in an electrically neutral atom. It has the electronic configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p4.

The orbitals have a formula 2n^2 where n = 0, 1, 2, 3 etc.

In the shells, n = 1 so there are 2 electrons. For n = 2, 2*(2)^2 = 8 electrons. So, 16 - (8 + 2) = 6 electrons in the 3 shell (outermost shell)

Therefore from the electronic confriguration above, there are 6 electrons in the outermost shell.

C. is what percent of 125?​
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 125 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=125$.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=125$.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=125(1)$.
